![]() The 1 st grade level 1 phonics worksheets focus practicing consonant digraphs such as ‘sh’ as in sheep, ‘ch’ as in chick, ‘ph’ as in photo and ‘th’ as in think. With our grade 1 phonics worksheets, new and complex sound combinations are practiced to step up literacy. The goal is to develop their confidence before introducing more complex sound combinations. At this stage, these worksheets help kindergarteners learn to read basic words and sentences mainly built using short vowel sounds. With the additional short vowels, new word families such as ‘ig’ as in pig and ‘og’ as in dog, as well as ‘ug’ as in bug, help children practice reading and sounding out words with similar sound combinations. The worksheets also reinforce the critical five short vowel sounds while placing emphasis on the short sounds of ‘i’, ‘o’ and ‘u’. Kindergarten Level 2 builds on Level 1 to develop skills in identifying ending consonant sounds. Our kindergarten level 1 sound files can be played from here. Kiz Phonics is the only site with a playlist of all its worksheets organized by level. Looking for the mp3 sound files to match each worksheet? We have you covered. The reading of basic sentences and the recognition of sounds within words is central to the practice. At this level, you will find worksheets to practice beginning consonants, introduce short vowels and word families – at, et, an, ed and en. We then follow with phonics worksheets for Kindergarten Level 1. As such, our preschool phonics worksheets provide excellent exercises to develop basic phonemic awareness. In between are review worksheets that combine multiple letters and pause to practice what has been learned. Three words that begin with each letter sound are included to facilitate the introduction of each sound. When you consider the fact that we present the upper case and lower case letters, children develop the skills to recognize some 52 unique letters and associate them with particular sounds. Thus, we offer 26 worksheets that each focus on a particular letter and its beginning sound, followed by handwriting and letter tracing. Our worksheets mainly introduce children to the beginning sounds of the 26 letters of the alphabet. We use the word segment to talk about breaking a word down into separate sounds and blend to talk about putting the sounds together to make a word.Even before children fully develop the fine motor skills needed to handle a pencil or pen, well designed A to Z letter sound worksheets are needed to lay the foundation for early literacy. In phonics we use the word decode to talk about reading a single word.They can blend these sounds into the word ‘boat’ For example, they will be taught that the word ‘boat’ can be separated out ( segmented) into ‘b-oa-t’ which represents the sounds bbb-oh– ttt. Then the children will really start to read! They will learn to recognise the different letters or pairs of letters (graphemes) in a word, say the separate sounds ( phonemes) slowly, then put ( blend) them together.It can take until Year 2/Primary 3 before your child might have learned all 44 sounds in English and the many different spellings used for each sound.Your child will then learn more sounds and will start blending them too. ![]() For example, they will learn that the sounds of the letters ‘m-a-t’ blend together to make the word ‘mat’. Next, they will learn how sounds can be put together ( blended) to make words. ![]() In phonics we use the word grapheme to talk about the letters on the page and phoneme to talk about the sounds those letters represent.For example, they will be taught that the letter ‘m’ represents an mmm sound and the letters ‘oa’ represent an oh sound. ![]()
